Marlborough legislator grateful for help in putting on annual senior conference

To the Editor:

I was so happy that the Middlesex and Worcester Senior Conference returned on April 18 at Assabet Valley Regional Technical High School in Marlborough, with more than 300 seniors from throughout the district in attendance.

Seniors who attended the conference had access to a multitude of workshops, health screenings, information tables, yoga, Zumba, an art workshop and, of course, our raffle prizes. They also enjoyed a complimentary breakfast and lunch and performances by local Marlborough band The Romeos Duo and my friends, pianists April Feng and Fumika Mizuno.

I am deeply grateful to the Assabet Valley superintendent, principal and students for their warm welcome and support to the seniors at the conference. I also want to thank our corporate sponsors: Point32Health, Ken’s Dressings and Sauces, Christopher Heights, Walmart, MetroWest Medical Center, New Horizons, Fallon Health, Cooperative Credit Unions, Boston Scientific, Blue Cross Blue Shield Massachusetts, Avidia Bank, Durand Anastas Environmental Strategies and Whittier Rehab.

I appreciate the incredible vendors who offered valuable information to the attending seniors and the companies and agencies who provided raffle prizes.

Thank you once again for attending this wonderful event. I hope you can join us next year for the 44th Annual Senior Conference. If you have ideas for new sessions, programming, or entertainment, please be in touch with my office at James.Eldridge@MaSenate.Gov.
